611 Comments for Margaret Hague Materninty Hospital

To answer to MissyJohnson above's wonderings--I was born at The Margaret Hague. My father probably stood at that very window. I had one child of my own.

As far as I know, Hague was always part of the Jersey City Medical Center. I had this particular hospital listed under a pseudonym for many years, which might seem confusing. I believe they are now condos, yes.

Although I'm nobody notable, I was one of the over 300K babies born in this Hospital cica 1957. I thought this hospital was originally demolished? And then replaced by the newly built "Jersey City Medical Center"? But it looks now as if it was only renamed? Then later changed into condos in 2015? Is this correct? Thanks for the information....

Just thinking of the lonely person who last slept clinging to this stuffed puppy for comfort in that dark room , just makes me want to cry. I hope the person who lost it now has a new stuffed animal in which to get comfort from.

Crack heads take copper. Anyone who wants to make a buck steals copper, its sad and pathetic because these buildings are AMAZING.

luzes e ar condicionado?

academic theater I think.

At a maternity hospital? Doesn't sound right.

Billy (the day nurse) used to give us cans of mountain dew from that fridge to "reward" our med "compliance." Ahh, that Haldol/prolixen cocktail...

c'mon now, dont worry - all the ghost people are playing with that little dog and they are getting very nice vibes from that. i know what you mean though. but, Puppy is loved!

I am pretty sure that is an autoclave a large one none the less these were used to sanitize large equipment such as body trays and gurneys

WHOOPS! The cold water input is at on the left at the bottom of the tank, the three pipes would feed through different coils to heat the water. Very expensive unit and very rare. The units were set to work on a demand basis. the more demand the more coils are on line. Wow, what a nice find, I have heard about these but never saw one. Thank you Mr. Motts.

Sorry everyone, not a boiler. It is a water heater. A boiler would have a combustion chamber, this does not. The insulated pipe in the upper left of the picture is a steam line and the un-insulated line at the bottom of the unit is the condensate return line. The pipe coming in at the top middle would be the hot water output line. You cannot see it but on the bottom of the tank there is a cold water input which was sent to a diffuser inside the tank. The boiler is somewhere else.

THERE is a orb somebody is still there.....

maybe Lynne is inside the fridge atm... =P
nice shot, not much of making me feel anything but i still like it
